How Does Weather Affect Your Roof?



Are you starting to notice signs of wear on your shingles? Is your roof starting to look worn and raggedy?

Your roof is susceptible to weather damage due to time and exposure to the elements. Don’t hesitate in contacting us if you see peeling shingles or cracks.

Weather Damage On Roof

Rain and hail storms

Are you curious about how water and ice can cause roof material to deteriorate over time? These are the most common ways hail and rain can cause roof damage:

Water Damage

Unchecked moisture can quickly damage your roof and cause financial problems. You run the risk of water getting trapped under loose shingles or forming cracks on your roof from heavy rains.

Moisture can seep into your roof’s exposed materials, causing mold, mildew, and other problems. Rot can eventually lead to permanent damage to your roof and may require the entire roof to be replaced.

Ice Damage

Your roof’s integrity can also be affected by snow and ice. Blizzards can be dangerous because they allow snow to settle in cracks, holes, and spaces beneath loose shingles.

The snow eventually melts and water seeps through your roof, causing the wood to deteriorate. Hail can be particularly damaging to your shingles. The impact of hail on your roof can cause them to wear down or even break off completely.

Sun Damage

Radiation from the sun can be inevitable, so it is important to inspect your roof frequently. Exposure to the sun every day can cause cracks, holes, and ruptures in your roof’s coating, making them brittle. This can eventually lead to your shingles falling apart, allowing moisture to build up and destroying the wood beneath. You need to hire a roofing contractor to help you.

Wind Destruction

High winds can cause serious damage to roof materials depending on where you live. Strong winds can tear shingles off your house and cause damage to your roof by blowing in airborne debris.

Extreme storms like hurricanes or tornadoes are known for causing roof damage and caving. Certain types of shingles and materials can withstand strong winds thanks to their built-in nail strips and other innovative features.
